Poem of the Day For: Monday, July 16, 2018

Ernest Hemingway’s birthday is coming up this week (July 21, 1899-July 2, 1961). He did a lot of traveling in his life, which influenced his writing. Serving as an ambulance driver during World War I also impacted what he wrote as he captured that time period.

by Ernest Hemingway

Never trust a white man,
Never kill a Jew,
Never sign a contract,
Never rent a pew.

Poem of the Week for: 07/10/2018 - 07/16/2018

Have you been to the beach yet this summer? What sounds come to mind from your last visit to the beach? For this week's poet the sounds of the beach are, Swoosh, Boom, Crunch, Howl.

Mindfulness is the practice of being present in the moment. When we consciously make the effort to be mindful, each sensation we experience becomes louder, richer and more meaningful. Life moves too fast. We can all benefit from creating rich memorable moments.

Let's make wonderful memories this summer. Memories that will stay with us throughout the year and for the rest of our lives!

Swoosh, Boom, Crunch, Howl

by Hayden Myer

The sun rises higher and higher, like a blossoming flower, as the children play...
Beach, Beach, Beach
The zephyr catches my skin like a wide receiver playing football...
Swoosh, Swoosh, Swoosh
